(side note: Girls are way easier then boys. I didn't realize how much easier life is when it's just the girls. Boys are just a different animal all together, and I use the term "animal" pretty accurately.)
My oldest and I got to do a lot of bonding time in during the evenings. After the baby went to bed, my oldest and I would cuddle up on the couch with a blanket and snacks and watch t.v way past our bed times. I figured this wasn't too much of a problem, staying up late. How bad can it be? Besides, how would my husband find out?
Fast-forward to a week later. The boys are back and happy and everyone is starting to fall into their old routines including their bedtime routines. Fortunately, for me, my husband puts the older kids to sleep while I work on our youngest. I'm usually the first one downstairs while he tucks everyone else into bed.
This was just such a night and I was downstairs watching "How I met you mother," and my husband comes down and tells me this story:
Husband: So I'm tucking Scarlett into bed and she asks me where she can find a husband.
Me: Aww, where did that come from?
Husband: I don't know. But I tell her that when she is older and she wants to find a husband she can usually meet people at her school or maybe at work.
(Picture him having the rest of the conversation in the bed pink flowery bedroom that is my daughters, complete with little girl shoes and Disney princesses everywhere.)
Scarlett: At school? No, daddy. I can't marry a boy from school.
Husband: Why not?
Scarlett: Because those boys are my friends
Husband: Well, it's okay to marry one of your friends.
Scarlett: No daddy, that would be weird.
Husband: Okay, then where do you think you should meet your husband.
Scarlett: In a bar.
Husband: silent shock
Scarlett: Just like....
(wait for it....)
Scarlett: Barney.

True story.
Needless to say. I'm not allowed to watch HIMYM with the kids anymore.
